I've had acquaintances waste away trying to delay cancer death. Hospice is not fun, so I'd rather go out on my own terms.

Plus, any kind of money making scheme I'd think of is likely going to end up like the "aim for the bushes" scene in The Other Guys.

No. Most large Reddit communities are toxic, both on the user and mod end. Let Lemmy grow at its own pace without repeating the same mistakes Reddit made.

The alternative would be a non-standard diaper app that, rather than hiding the incoming call, would pick it up and drop it. I don’t know if such software exists.

I assume you meant dialer app 😆 . But anyway, for some Android phones you can use call screening.

He refers to the fact that the web app does not have default access to your device sensors, microphone, storage, etc.

The rationale for using LTS distros is being eroded by widespread adoption of containers and approaches like flatpak and nix. Applications and services are becoming less dependent on any single distro and instead just require a skeleton core system that is easier to keep up to date. Coupled with the increased cost needed to maintain security backports we are getting to a point where it's less risky for companies to use bleeding edge over stable.

There cybersecurity part would be covered by infosec.pub. Devops and similar communities are more fragmented however.

 

Monitoring and observability tools commit the cardinal sin of tricking people into thinking monitoring is an easy problem. It is very simple to monitor a small application or service. Almost none of those approaches scale.
